Apologies to Wez and other devs for being impolite... It was in the spur of a moment...
Thanks teh_asbo, this suggestion works (the public machine didn't let non-admin users run regedit, but still lets them modify registry with this approach). In response to Harold, yes it's a viewer on a public machine. and remote server ip address. thx for all replies cheers ----- Original Message ---- Personally, I figure out how all of my applications work before I use them in any sort of insecure environment. It seemed to me that you just posted a tirade on how lousy the software was for using a very common method of settings storage when really what was to blame was your own ignorance. Don't get me wrong, I totally understand being caught unawares by code that isn't my own, I just think you could have written your request to the developers in a much more polite manner. To fix your problem, fire up notepad, and paste in the following three lines: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\RealVNC\VNCViewer4\MRU] and save it as anything.reg. Double-click it, answer yes to the prompt, and then the MRU list will be deleted. _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list VNC-List@realvnc.com To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
